Del Potro Backs Draper to Compete with Tennis Elite, but Stresses Importance of Physical Resilience

Juan Martin del Potro, a former Grand Slam winner, believes Jack Draper has the potential to rival top players like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, but notes that Draper needs to build confidence in his body to achieve consistency. Del Potro, who struggled with injuries throughout his career, emphasized the importance of physical and mental well-being in tennis. Draper, who has been dealing with anxiety and injuries, will look to regain his form at the upcoming Madrid Open, where he reached the final last year. Del Potro advises Draper to assemble a strong support team, including a physical trainer and mental coach, to help him navigate the challenges of professional tennis.
